    Anyone use Centrebet.com?

    I've always seen their ads on various sporting/betting sites but have never tried them.

    The Centrebet site looks high-tech to me with lots of options.

    Anyone over here use them?

    I guess you can say they are financially-stable being listed on the ASX and one of the oldest sportsbooks around.

    Feedback regarding www.centrebet.com would be much appreciated.

    Thanks!

    Good option if you're not a yank. Aussie book so you know you're safe, better lines out there at times but a definite option.

    Thank you for the feedback guys!

    I will definitely try them out. They have better lines than the new mansion.com sportsbook and definitely more variety. It is best to spread the funds around.

    Is this Centrebet's way of Asian Handicapping?



    I thought that Asian Handicaps should not have any "draws"?

    Or don't they have any Asian Handicapping?

    there;s a difference between European Handicaps and Asian Handicaps. The first is 1 x 2-format (so with draw-possibility), the other 1 2-format.
    Centrebet usually has Euro Handicap, but sometimes also offers Asians. Some bookmakers do Euro, some bookmakers do Asian, some bookmakers do neither, some bookmakers do both.

    Centrebet is really recommendable - far better than many other books with european soccer odds.

    Thank you for all the positive reviews.

    And I agree that Centrebet should be at least an A book.

    I don't know if I would go that far or not. I think they deserve another review though in order to make sure it's not an over site.

    Centrebet should absolutely be an A book on your list.

    They have been around for ages, always fast payout and excellent service. Their licensed in Australia, which itself is quality. They dont limit customers,but instead they but some bets "Under review"; but most of the time you are allowed to bet the amount you request.

    For Europeans its without doubt one of the best bookmakers around.

    Also I highly recommend their poker client. Easy to transfer between sportsbook and poker, and their support is top notch. Quick answers and always treat new and established customers with the highest level of service.

    Centrebet has:
    1) lots of payment options
    2) better odds than many sportsbooks
    3) fast payouts
    4) no (known) limiting
    5) very easy to use software
    6) publicly-listed and well-governed
    7) financially-stable and larger than a lot of A+ books

    .... why isn't Centrebet an A+?

    a)Do they allow people to win,before they start f*ucking around?i know they are not British but i read somewhere that the Australians BOOKS have lost their good manners also and are now "BET 365-ING" players?(see Canbet reviews they are ambiguous at best)

    b)Are you able to go on a major loosing streak(as i am right now)and not have to worry about making a come back by having your account being close or limited to a ridiculous among as with the U.K. books?

    That old chum are the questions,that need to be answer before i would give them any good ratings at all!!

    You can't really ask for much better from a security standpoint. It's just too bad I can't play there is all.

    As far as I'm concerned, bet with Australian books and you will never have any problems. They are very heavily regulated and all require licensing. No bullshit.

    Centrebet is a fantastic book, as far as I'm concerned the only thing stopping it from being A+ is they don't have many ht/ft bets in nba and usually you can find better odds on moneyline betting. Customer service, reliability etc is really good.

    I use Centrebet as my primary sportsbook, for many reasons.

    First of all they are as finacially secure as could possibly be, and they have excellent customer service.

    Secondly they aren't anal about funding/withdrawing differences.

    For example, I deposit $2000 using my **** credit card and run it up to $5000. I ask for $1000 to go back to my **** card and the rest sent to my moneybookers account so I can fund other books. They have no problem with that. I have also deposited using moneybookers and then requested a payout to my **** card, they say "no problem" and promptly process my request.

    Centerbet is very accomodating.

    They are a very good book for betting NHL hockey, NFL and CFL, they also offer "in play" wagering on alot of events.

    Don't know if the offer is still there, but they gave me AUD$50 for sending in my documents after playing there for a while. Very good book, but I always forget I have a balance there.

    Centrebet has always been one of my favourite books, actually one of the first sportsbooks i tried about 10 years ago. I've been customer since and never had any problems. Very good CS. They take surprisingly large stakes and i think they are one of those bookies that sets the standards á la pinnacle. This sportsbook should be A-rated as others already mentioned.

    My opinion, is that an A or A+ would be too high for Centrebet.

    - Support is slow, they often answer emails after 12-24 hours, and no live chat available

    - I only have experience with moneybookers outpayment. It usually takes a little more than 48 hours for them to send the transfer (not the 1st!), which is not an "A" bookmaker speed...also (which is usual, but there are exceptions) no outpayment on weekends.

    - Not enough events, not enough bet types

    + Usually good oddses

    + Outpayment was never more than 72 hours when started on monday or tuesday

    + nice promotions for both betting/casino/poker/games

    + not even one minor problem with them, such as wrong grading, slow settling, etc...

    They are a "B" bookmaker in my opinion....

    I agree with your +/- points 100% fixxer, but in terms of risk to the player, I think Centrebet.com is as low as it gets in the sportsbook business.

    Ive used them for 3 years and havent had a problem either.Ive heard of people being cut for winning but havent seen any evidence of it.I guess i,ll have to start winning there to find out.There not A+ but easy a B.Your money is safe and with load of options i will continue to bet with them.
